The Prevention Centre and its Collaboration for Enhanced Research Impact (CERI) member Centres of Research Excellence have worked together to synthesise the existing body of evidence on prevention-focused health economics evaluations. Led by RE-FRESH Next Generation CI A/Prof. Jaithri Ananthapavan the research questions were formed through discussion with policy partners focusing on their evidence needs. The resulting synthesis can be used to inform decision-making and advocate for investment in prevention. The synthesis covers broad prevention focus areas from maternal and child health, through to obesity, tobacco harm and falls prevention, and provides a general overview of health economics methods and types of evaluations (and when they should be used) for those without existing knowledge of this area.
The report and a summary of its content can be found on the Prevention Centre website
